Search parameter to find pinned and flagged messages
I like using the search operators to easily find a message. I would be interested to search messages which are pinned or tagged with a simple parameter, like pinned:yes . I know I can click on the Pin button to find all pinned messages, but then I can't seach for a specific text within the pinned message.
To give an example, I'd like to search all pinned messages mentioning the user tom and the word "server". I would like to type:
@tom server pinned:yes4 votes -
Sort users by last name in private chat list
In my opinion, it is very usefull to sort users by their last name. Now they are sorted by first name and it is very annoying. We have more people with same forename but fewer with same last name. It is more logical to sort them alpaphetically by last name than forename.

Direct Message and @mention have different background notification colors
When you receive a notification on your phone, it would be helpful to quickly see if it is a DM or an @mention in a channel. You could modify the notification background color to help visually notify the user vs adding more text.

Auto-conversion of messages larger than 16383 characters into a text file attachment on a post
It could be cool if mattermost did a auto-conversion of messages larger than 16383 characters into a text file of sorts?
Sometimes, we have large logs and such, which don't need to be search-able by the mattermost search (or present in the DB eating away space) but if there was a way to auto-convert it into a text file after pasting the text normally, that would be super cool
Paste text into message box --> Hit enter --> message gets converted into a text file and sent in place of the post

Customize the BOT tag
Especially for incoming webhooks, it would be nice to override the BOT tag text that is shown on every message. This would allow (for instance) integrations to post to a channel as a user in the external system with the name of the system shown instead of BOT, e.g.:
someguy IRC: hello
or
myusername JIRA: issue comment
There would still be a visual indication that the username is associated with an integration and may not be an actual user, but the word BOT isn't always the best description of what's happening.

Synchronise drafts between (mobile and desktop) clients
I currently use Mattermost from the web client and an iPhone. It would be great if draft messages were synchronised between the different clients.
This is not something that sounds particularly useful in the abstract, but it is a feature of Telegram and I found I would often write half a message and then remember that I had a relevant link or similar on a different platform, so want to continue the message where I could copy-paste that link. Now that we have switched to using Mattermost, I am missing it.

Channel Creator Info for Desktop & Web App
While the Mattermost Mobile app has the feature of tapping on the channel header to see more information that includes who created the channel and the date:
"Created by XXX on XXX XX, XXXX"
Users have to scroll all the way to the beginning of the channel for desktop and web app. This will be challenging especially for channels that have a lot of content.
It will be great if we can have similar feature for desktop and web app as well where users can click on the channel header > view info and show the same information.

Allow users to choose the Audio device for notifications, including 'All Devices'
In the desktop app, the user is able to select which windows audio device, or All Devices, is used for notification. The option to follow the OS' current selection, or override with your own selection. Sometimes when using the headset as the default OS output device, it would be nice for alerts to be played on the external speakers and/or headset, as chosen by the user

Click the file to open
- App sets an automatic download directory, such as $HOME\Documents\Mattermost Files\
- Add an "open" button beside the download button on the right side of the file in the chat.
- When you click the "Open" button, if the file has not been downloaded, it will be automatically downloaded to the download folder in the first step. At the same time, the download progress bar will be displayed below the file in the chat. After the download is complete, or the file has been downloaded, call the system program to open the file.

Forward messages to other users
Like
Email forwarding generically refers to the operation of re-sending an email message delivered to one email address to one or more different email addresses.The term forwarding, used for mail since long before electronic communications, has no specific technical meaning,[1] but it implies that the email has been moved "forward" to a new destination.
Email forwarding can also redirect mail going to a certain address and send it to one or more other addresses. Vice versa, email items going to several different addresses can converge via forwarding to end up in a single address in-box.[clarification needed]

Allow customizing GitLab login button
Currently, the GitLab login button just says "GitLab". It would be helpful to be able to modify it to refer to an organization-specific gitlab instance.
